Front suspension question

[Bigmd]

Hey guys my 02 has just under 150000 on it. I'm getting ready to do front shocks and an1" leveling kit. While I have it apart ,should I worry about replacing control arm bushings and ball joints ? I don't have any problems and frontend feels tight . Thanks

I would if it was me. Anything with that mileage has a chance of LBJ failure and this is how I ended up!

Ok thanks, leave arms alone?

Hmmm just looked up vin and seems I have recall on the lowers

If the arms are tight don't worry about them, but the LBJ's are wise to replace.

good idea to replace lbj every 100k
